Ozias Lewis House (1806)

The Ozias Lewis House was built in 1806 on South Street in Litchfield. The entrance portico with Ionic columns is believed to have been removed from the Tapping Reeve House, further up South Street, in the nineteenth century. During the 1930s restoration of the Reeve House, a replica of the portico was added. Both Reeve (1783) and Lewis (1819) served as Justices of the Peace for Litchfield County.
